my say is simple, when one need a cheap place to sleep in St Pete area, that is a valid place to go. i've read some reviews that aren't realistic - if one wants a "better" place, then spend twice the money. it is fair to not have the most fancy place for the price paid, and as such, this is the best ratio cost/service there is out there when you are on a tight budget. I ve been there now on 3 different trips, and I'll go back there without a doubt if i need to go in this area by myself again. note this isn't a true hotel, but a house with shared bedrooms that have 2 to 4 beds per bedroom.

Weird setting

The pictures was not accurate. It is not really hostel. It was a house with people sharing the space, in the residential area. its pretty odd environment. i just had to hold my breath since i need a place to shower and sleep while in town on business. There were people sleeping on the sofa and chair in the living room. it was just uncomfortable so like i said, I had to hold my breath since its so cheap.
